Sam Groth (AUS) vs. Alexandr Dolgopolov (UKR) – Wow … how to pick this one? Groth has an absolutlely monstrous serve. Dolgopolov has so much variety he sometimes loses track of his strategic goals. Dolg played quite well in Cincy so I will take him in 5 fun sets. If the Ukrainian goes on walkabout, Groth could maul him though.

Matthew Ebden (AUS) vs. Grigor Dimitrov (BUL) [17] – Dimitrov has had a lousy year, but has been presented with a soft draw. Can he redeem his 2015 in NY or will Ebden continue his 2015 decline?
